Time's up and I haven't seen the summary -- So let me help @JLBowler out while he is doing the other important stuff.

This what I saw @Whitey093

If I missed anybody let me know.

I think the rule is that Whitey has until 11PM EST on Wednesday to post his choice. (Ignore my comment in the room earlier tonight. The choice is yours)

2 karting suggestions?! That deserves an automatic Win. 👍

I have decided to go with.....
Chevrolet Corvette Z06 (C6) LM Race Car '06
@ Daytona Road Course
616 Dealer PP on RM tires

@Unknown_Male great choice!!

Thank you everyone for your suggestions. I had the most fun lapping with this combo. It flows well, plenty of passing opportunities, and I suspect there will be some back and forth battles throughout a race. At the same time it won't be one big pack like the mustang, it will spread out a bit.

Hope everyone enjoys it. Make sure to get some practice laps in so you don't fly off track at turns 1,2 or the bus stop. The high entry speed makes it tricky if you're unprepared.

Nice. I may have to race this Sunday now.

PAPA MANGO'S VROOM VROOM REPORT

There was a lot of mixed feelings about sunday's combos, which is nothing special as every SNAILian has a unique driving style and some struggle more than others with every combo. I personally relish the challenge every combo brings. It's one of the reasons I joined this league.

That being said I was looking forward to sunday's race as I had the opportunity to run +-1000 miles [total combo miles combined] with some fine racing gentlemen before sunday. Thank you.
There was once again a lot of issues surrounding connections. This was worse than usual and almost threatened to ruin the night but @racingchamp30 saved the night like he always does. :bowdown::bowdown: . My best showing of the night was in R2 R1. This was a tough battle for pole but I managed to clinch pole away from RacingChamp , who congratulated me on my pole like a true gentleman of the sport [even though I know he was gutted;):P]

With the race under way there was a lot of battles for positions even though there were not a lot of position changes. I saw and experienced some of the best defensive racing from @singlepaddy :odd:who just manages to put his car where you dont want him to. For any one who finds themselves behind this man, patience is the key, and wait till he makes a mistake which are rare if not then take my advice and just follow him around or risk wrecking yourself or the field. @Raw10_2u shows how this works in the highlights.

SO ON THAT BOMB SHELL here is this week's video highlight from division 5 on sunday. Great showing from all drivers and great battles to watch out for.
NOTE: I KNOW THAT IT SAYS R1R2 IN THE VIDEO BUT THIS IS AN ERROR ON MY PART. IT'S MEANT TO BE R2R1. NOTICED IT TOO LATE TO CHANGE IT.

. enjoy:gtpflag::gtpflag::bowdown::bowdown::odd::mad::mischievous::scared::grumpy::crazy::lol::lol::lol:

Really? To do what, exactly?
Was that something they did in the beginning, just to check stuff out? I started playing online in March and never saw one (that I knew about)...
The only time you would know they are there is if you go to the results screen after a race. From time to time they will pop into a room. I got a warning from one for get this... avoiding the swear filter :):@::gtplanet:

Oh, the swear filter, my favourite GT feature. If I had a penny for every time I typed a long message and saw ******* in the text box because of some stupid thing like "associated"...
I bought a mic after a particularly frustrating night with some Brazilian friends, where about 85% of all messages were vetoed.
 
FYI All non WRC regulars with Project Cars...

This week's lineup includes a Mercedes DTM touring car at Spa. This car has a very "GT-esqu" feel about it and reminds me of that Mitsubishi FTO/Spa combo that so many enjoyed.

I just thought some might enjoy this one even if leary to compete with Project Cars. We have talent of different levels so there's guaranteed to be a good race for everybody.
